Help me spend some $$$

So I am really new to SSD, I became a part of La's team back in Dec, but it was right at the end of my pregnancy and I really kind of just keep to her forum.

Well this last month I have been hanging out more here in the main forums (and doing the challenges) and have gotten to know some of the other designers here and I must say.....I could probably go to any page in the shoppe and just click on a product to buy and I'd love it...it seems that everyone here just kind of "fits me". But....I must say it gets "daunting" looking through all those pages, but I have a 40% coupon I am gonna be using this Friday so I thought I"d ask you all to show me some of the stuff you love in the shoppe.

I can really use anything.... I have both boys and girls and they range in age from 10 to newborn. I love kits that coordinate and I love individual element packs and I'm a bit of an alpha pig.....I consider them like shoes.....a girl can never have to many!!!! :D

So help me spend some $$$ and show me some of your favorite SSD products!!!!
 
Not on the CT or anything, but SERIOUSLY - anything by Dani Mogstad. You can't go wrong with her products! I've always been a huge fan of her's!

Penny has amazing bent bunches and two pager templates...those always make my pages look great!

Have fun spending $$$. :cool:
 
Oh, man...tough question! The thing I love about being here at SSD is that I'm with all of my favorite designers...seriously! I hardly ever go shopping anywhere else anymore...there are about 3 or 4 designers outside of SSD that I love enough to go buy regularly, lol.

I can't even recommend favorites, everyone is my favorite, and every new kit is my next favorite, lol...
 
Just remember you asked for this. :) I'm going to try to limit myself to 1 pick from each.... LOL

Anything Bree Clarkson does.. that girl rocks, but her TOTM templates are always awesome and new ones should come out Saturday!!!

A Little Off(set) Alpha - Christy Lyle

Road Trip - Dani Mogstad

Day Planner - Heather Roselli

Spin Your Wheels - Julie Billingsley

Denim & Diamonds - Kristin CB

Any of Bean's Am I Quote things rock.. my fav is Children.. but seriously.. anything that girl does.....

Robin rocks my socks too... her Layered Title Templates are great... this one I'm linking is Childhood.....

I LOVE Sara's tinies alphas. This one is the Wooden one.

Graphically Grunged is my fav Traci kit. :)

Collabs.. there are so so so so so many I adore. Anything by Bean/Carlton is golden.. get it.. don't think twice. Um.... really.. they all rock. :)
 
Favs???? Lets see I like ...... Dani and Christy and Robin and Manda and Heather and Penny and oh wait.... this could go on forever - Just buy the whole store!!!! I think I have!!!!:thumbup:
 
Hahahaha yea, we're all pretty much useless.

My advice would be to log into the store, and just wander through all the categories adding things to your cart. Then once you're done you can go back t your cart and decide what you really really need. I do that at the beginning of every month for my sweet rewards, lol.
 
i fill my cart and go back through it later. and i really do pretty good, limiting myself. i guess i do have some self control. i buy kits in spurts, 2 or 3 times a month. i probably only spend about $20 a month. I don't think I can pick a favorite kit; it depends on my mood. and i tend to mix and match anyway.

Thanks ladies (I've booked make quite a few shown here)...keep them coming!!!

No special pictures in mind, but if a kit was made...I probably have a picture that will go with it!!! :D I am on the look out for a good kit for bathtime...those are hard to find!!!

Oh, Julie had a cute bathtime kit in the birthday grab bag in February...maybe you could sweet talk her into releasing it...it's a mini kit (but WAY cute).
 
Kristin CB has beautiful kits! Here are two of her recent ones that are just gorgeous!

You can see them here and here.
 
It's funny, cuz even though I go through the whole shop every few weeks, I spot new (old) things that I HAVE to HAVE with every pass :p

I'm guaranteed to spend at least $25 when I have a 40%. With the chipboard and shipping, it might be a little more this time around :D
 
I'm a Zoe-addict, too. Here are some of my faves:




i keep trying to use these from Micheline on every page:


I'm crazy about this kit; there's a whole collection, too:


Fee's Big Adventure Alpha is one of my faves:


And if you need to motivate your children, bree has this template:
 
I'm back already, lol. I forgot a couple that are in my kaboodle, just waiting for the right pictures.
Susan makes the BEST papers!


This kit by Julie makes me glad I have sons:


I bought these stitches with my Sweet Rewards last year, and I LOVE them. There's a straight set, too:
